Directed by Kabir Khan, the film is based on former Indian cricketer, Kapil Dev, and the Indian victory in the 1983 World Cup under his captaincy.
“It is an important part of our sports history and history as a nation, our first world cup win and it had put us on top of the world, stamped our presence on the map.” Ranveer had said in 2018.
In 1983, Indian team led by Kapil Dev defeated West Indies, victors of the first two world cups, in the tournament by 43 runs to clinch the trophy.
